Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$18.00
Purchased At:
LBS
Strengths:
Compact, very bright (for the money). Simple solid mount that fits all bar sizes. Good battery life.
Weaknesses:
None so far.
Similar Products Used:
Smart Polaris, Blackburn Voyager, Rechargable units
Bike Setup:
Giant CRX City Commuter
Bottom Line:
This is not a night mountain bike light but for what it is designed for, commuting in urban enviroments, and for the money, it's brilliant! Brighter and cheaper than the Polaris. As bright and way cheaper than the Voyager, also smaller, better battery duration AND it hasn't broken its mount yet and bounced down the road. The mount is simple and fits all sized bars easily. Light attaches solidly and can be removed easily. It only uses 2 x AA batteries and is bright enough to ride in the pitch dark (just). I'm still on the original batteries after a month of hard use. It's a five Chilli product to me.
